Hon. @iamHSDickson,
Registration isn’t victory. The NDC must be built to win in 2027.
The primaries are over. Heal wounds, unite aspirants and supporters, and stop fighting those you need at the ballot box.
Own the mistakes and lead. Nigeria bleeds - this is bigger than ego.
PRESS STATEMENT
OBIDIENT MOVEMENT SUSPENDS TOP TO BOTTOM CAMPAIGN AND DECLARES OPERATION NO WORK, NO VOTE
The Obidient Movement has taken note of the repeated disregard, disrespect, and political injustice shown to its members by political parties and politicians who want to benefit from its strength, credibility, structure, reach, and public goodwill.
We have also taken note of the recent statement credited to Senator Seriake Dickson, where he reportedly told Obidients not to disparage him or his party, and claimed that NDC is doing Peter Obi and Obidients a favour by granting them its platform.
We have heard him clearly.
We also noticed the troubling tone of ownership in that interview. The possessive and self-important language made NDC sound less like a democratic party set up to rescue Nigerians and more like the personal property of one man. If NDC was truly set up to save Nigerians, then it must be a party for Nigerians, not a private estate where citizens are expected to kneel and thank one man for political access. Political parties are supposed to belong to the people, their members, and the public interest, not to one man or a small circle of political landlords.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Obidient Movement is not owned by any political party. We are not political slaves. We are not campaign tools. We are not a crowd to be summoned during election season and ignored when decisions are being made.
If NDC believes it is doing Obidients a favour, then we will no longer force our favour on NDC.
Since we have been rudely reminded that we do not own the party, and since we are being told that nobody is doing NDC any favour, it is time for us to withdraw automatic political charity and move into non-partisan, people-centred politics.
We must also speak for the aspirants and ordinary members who reportedly went through primaries in good faith, spent money, mobilised supporters, earned their place, and were later allegedly cheated, replaced, or pushed aside. If a party cannot protect fairness inside its own house, it has no moral right to preach justice to Nigerians. People who worked for their mandate must not be sacrificed for backroom deals and political convenience.
In view of recent events, and the continued failure of party leaderships to treat the movement with the respect it deserves, we hereby suspend the Top to Bottom campaign approach.
Going forward, every candidate must stand on their own record, competence, character, capacity, and public credibility.
Whether a candidate is in NDC, ADC, PDP, Labour Party, or any other political platform, they must campaign on issues. They must face the people. They must explain what they have done, what they can do, and why Nigerians should trust them with power.
Peter Obi has shown the standard. He campaigns on issues. He speaks to governance, economy, education, security, production, accountability, and the welfare of ordinary Nigerians. Any candidate who wants the support of the people must do the same.
No candidate will be allowed to ride on Obi’s wave while disrespecting the same movement that built and sustained that wave.
No more automatic support.
No more blind loyalty.
No more party-first politics.
No more “vote them because they are under our platform.”
From today, we are moving from Top to Bottom to Operation No Work, No Vote.
No work, no vote.
Nigerian politicians have shown repeatedly that many of them are on the same side when it comes to protecting their interests against the masses. They change parties, form alliances, recycle themselves, insult the people, and still expect the people to keep clapping. That era must end.
Our loyalty is to good governance, competence, integrity, justice, accountability, and the Nigerian people.
At the presidential level, our position remains clear. Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso are the only ticket we recognise for the national rescue mission.
Every other candidate, at every other level, must prove themselves.
They must show capacity.
They must show integrity.
They must show their work.
They must convince the people.
The Obidient Movement will no longer be used as political fuel by people who cannot respect the source of that energy.
Any candidate who wants Obidient votes must earn them.
They are not doing us a favour.
The people are the favour.
And anyone who wants the people’s support must respect the people first.

For and on behalf of Obidients, since the leadership of the Movement is sleeping.
@Karigwe@YunusaTanko@NigeriaNDCHQ This is so beautiful! I love this, because I had already made that choice personally. I am happy that it will now apply across boards.
@AishaYesufu@UchePOkoye@iamHSDickson I wonder why PO didn't take the steps to form a party after 2023. This man is a shame. Let him enjoy his fame now. The seat of the president of Nigeria is too powerful. If PO wins, ordinary course of things will define his place.
1. Atiku Abubakar is broke (full stop).
2. He was financially decimated by Buhari, who wanted to ensure he would no longer have a large war chest to fund an election.
3. Buhari achieved this through Hadiza Usman, who frustrated Intels, a company co-owned by Atiku.
4. In 2021, Atiku sold his shares in Intels and used the money to run in the 2023 PDP primary election. Gov. Wike made sure Atiku spent big in PDP primaries by paying $30,000 per delegate.
5. Atiku who was fully extorted, needed a sitting governor to open his state treasury to co-fund his 2023 campaign, and Gov. Okowa came in handy.
6. Records show that Gov. Okowa borrowed N30,000,000,000 from three banks, Zenith Bank, UBA, and Access Bank. That was the money used for Atiku’s presidential campaign in 2023.
6b. EFCC records shows that Okowa could not show which project swallowed the last minute loan he took from 3 banks in 2022 using Delta state allocation as security.
7. Atiku’s remaining businesses, like America a university of Nigeria, Adama Beverage Limited, Gotel Communications, and Prodeco Nigeria Limited, cannot provide Atiku with the funds needed for the 2027 election, so he's looking for another “Okowa.” Sadly, that option is now limited.
8. Atiku has 25 voracious children waiting for food to be ready. Potential 25 Seyi Tinubu’s. Can Nigeria survive it? No!
9. Bottom line is: what we've seen Tinubu do will be child’s play compared to what Atiku will do if he becomes president.
10. A man who’s badly financially decimated and damaged, who has sold many assets and liquidated numerous businesses in his quest for the presidency, will first recover his investments before doing anything else.
11. If Tinubu, with Lagos treasury in his hands, is still hustling and scavenging the nation like a hungry vulture, imagine what Atiku will do.
12. Peter Obi remains Nigeria’s only real option. He's not broke. He's not hungry. He will not thief up your money.
13. This cannot be said about Atiku and Tinubu.
14. May God save us from Atiku and Tinubu.

@Iyoaiye_ Obi is the worst of them all yet he won an election that your BAT shamelessly stole in broad day light. To further demonstrate his superiority over ur boss, he also beat him in his own stronghold of Lagos. This is one thing you guys will never forgive til you die
Let me EXPLAIN something, to those who think this is a JOKE⚠️‼️
The screenshot you see here, was posted by @OlayinkaLere, Wike’s aide.
It was taken from an admin-“ONLY” backend https://t.co/FnztOUI7Gm
This is an access to Full application details including internal status notes, quality checks, full VIN, photo, residential address, polling unit, etc.
These information are not publicly available. Citizens cannot browse or search other people’s applications⚠️
Only authorized INEC officials have access to the “Admin-Only” backend, and this level of detailed application information on the INEC server, specifically via the admin portal https://t.co/8TD40zDspS
Access to https://t.co/FnztOUI7Gm from which Lanre took this screenshot requires login credentials, and is restricted to INEC personnel with appropriate privileges like Electoral Officers, RECs, or designated admins handling applications.
Here’s another catch
The INEC systems like IOMIS and ERMS use role-based access controls.
What this means is simple. Different INEC staff see only what’s relevant to their jurisdiction or duties.
So how did Lanre, who is not even an adhoc staff of the INEC get clearance to login to their server. @inecnigeria we need an answer ‼️
Any Nigerian citizen can check basic voter registration status, track their own applications e.g., voter transfer, updates, PVC replacement, or verify details like polling unit using public tools on the CVR portal https://t.co/6xo7sj8A6x. Even to do this, You typically need to login with your email, fill in your VIN, name, date of birth, etc, to view your own info.
What LANRE, APC, WIKE, TINUBU & INEC just did, is a breach of the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 and related regulations‼️
Nigerians Wake the fuck up, these guys are toiling with our future
And we are all calm
This is a declaration of War
If APC and INEC wants war, or a R£volution, >>>>>🤷♂️

@BwalaDaniel You're shameless! There are little kids in captivity for well over 2 weeks. The government you serve and defend like a mindless moron hasn't done anything about it, and you're here celebrating a foreign football club. Shame on you, Daniel
@Peter4Nigeria@ndc_ I love this! Nigerians are so desperately hungry for change; for something different from the hand they have been dealt in the last 13 years of APC
